If you are looking for something a little bit different than just a watch that tells the time you may want to keep an eye on John Maushammer’s creations. {ad}

He’s already created a Pong watch, but is taking his concept one step further now. The original watch had no buttons and no interaction with the game, it just looked cool. The next iteration will include the game Asteroids and looks like it will be getting much needed game interaction, but through a tilt sensor. Buttons will also be added to change modes, so we will hopefully get the original Pong too.

It doesn’t look like Pong will be playable mainly because John can’t see an easy way for it to be fun, but he does suggest a solution saying,

I think a two-player mode would be the best, but unless it’s done via RF (with 2 watches and 2 screens), I think it might get a little crowded on that little screen. But, I’m always open to suggestions…

That sounds like a perfect solution to me and would just make the watch more of a must-have gadget.

John isn’t working to any set timetable for development so we’ll just have to wait and see when this gets released.
